United States Seventh Circuit
Washington v. Smith, 08-4236
Denial of petition for habeas relief is affirmed where plaintiff's claim of ineffective assistance of counsel with respect to the restitution amount does not attack a custodial aspect of plaintiff's sentence and thus does not state a claim for relief under the habeas corpus statutes.
